STAFFING: 12280 - CCLR s.34(4)(a) - Despite this section, during the half hour before a care program begins and the half hour after a care program ends, a licensee may permit children who would otherwise be grouped in different care programs, and who are arriving at or leaving the community care facility, to be grouped together and supervised other than as required under Schedule E if (a) the care program is described as Multi-Age Child Care, Group Child Care (Under 36 Months), Group Child Care (30 Months to School Age) or Group Child Care (School Age).
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): The Licensee has an infant and toddler educator and a early childhood educator working in this program. The two individuals switch shifts so staff is working the opening shift while the other staff works the closing shift. When the early childhood educator works the opening shift the individual works more than 30 minutes therefore a infant and toddler educator is required beyond the 30 minutes.
Corrective Action(s): In discussion with the Licensee regarding this matter the Licensee will either be onsite in the mornings or the Licensee will apply for an exemption to enable a early childhood educator work as an infant and toddler educator for a period of 1 hour in the morning.
